In applying for a job in the Philippines, aside from the resume and valid IDs, another common requirement for hiring is a Police Clearance. It is a document that proves that a person is free from derogatory records and charges. This document is issued by the country’s police force, the Philippine National Police (PNP).
Apart from the valid IDs, often times, companies would request the job applicants who passed the screening to submit a Police Clearance, GSIS/SSS membership records, PhilHealth records, and their other personal documents to proceed with the employment.
